Spanish fresco restoration botched by amateur 23 August 2012Last updated at 06:50 ET Cecilia Gimenez: "Everybody who came into the church could see I was painting" An elderly parishioner has stunned Spanish cultural officials with an alarming and unauthorised attempt to restore a prized Jesus Christ fresco. Ecce Homo (Behold the Man) by Elias Garcia Martinez has held pride of place in the Sanctuary of Mercy Church near Zaragoza for more than 100 years. The woman took her brush to it after years of deterioration due to moisture. Cultural officials said she had the best intentions and hoped it could be properly restored. Donation Cecilia Gimenez, who is in her 80s, was reportedly upset at the way the fresco had deteriorated and took it on herself to "restore" the image. She claimed to have had the permission of the priest to carry out the job. "(The) priest knew it! BBC Europe correspondent Christian Fraser says the delicate brush strokes of Elias Garcia Martinez have been buried under a haphazard splattering of paint. 'Good intentions'

Swirling, Psychedelic Self-Portraits by Nikos Gyftakis Greek artist Nikos Gyftakis created this wonderful series of swirling self-portraits between 2004-2005. The works are made with oil pastels on canvas and are actually quite large, with a few of the pieces taller than 5′ (1.5m). You can see many more from this series and more of his recent work in his work gallery. (via empty kingdom) The Library of Congress' Photostream Exhibition-ism Amazing 70-Year-Old Color Photos Sometimes looking at old photographs makes me think of this exchange between comic-strip hero Calvin and his dad: Calvin : Dad, how come old photographs are always black and white? Didn't they have color film back then? Dad : Sure they did. In fact, those old photographs are in color. As absurd as it sounds, there is a kind of psychological truth to it -- having seen mostly black-and-white pictures of the world pre-1960 or so (I'm not counting Technicolor movies), I begin to imagine the past unfolding in monochrome. But this really takes the cake : the Library of Congress has just created a Flickr page , on which they've posted nearly 2,000 color slides -- many of them hauntingly beautiful. But rather than sending you off to pick through thousands of these photos on Flickr -- something of a laborious process -- we've compiled our favorites here.
